During the conversation, those two bodyguards were about to swarm up.
Everyone knew that Second Master Xu was a man who would take revenge for any grievance, and to strike him in the face in front of so many people from the Xu Family was undoubtedly asking for death!
A cold snort came from Ning Fan's nostrils, and his eyes, flashing with a cold light, swept towards Second Master Xu not far away.
There really are such idiots in this world!
Just as the bodyguards were about to make their move, Xu Xiaoqing hurried forward a step, "Ning Fan is not a swindler; he is a doctor! I want to see who dares to touch him!"
The two bodyguards hesitated, their bodies involuntarily pausing midway.
"All of you, attack! Ruolan might be in trouble right now. If my elder brother comes back, I'll see how you explain it to him!"
Second Master Xu was relentless, turning to Xu Xiaoqing and saying, "I let you try to save her, and now the person hasn't woken up, so it's no longer my fault!"
With the orders from Second Master Xu, the two bodyguards nodded vehemently, reaching out their hands towards Ning Fan.
The two bodyguards, one on his left and one on his right, surrounded Ning Fan, and after a signal with their eyes, they almost simultaneously made a move towards Ning Fan.
Ning Fan's expression was icy as he said in a deep voice, "Is this how the Xu Family treats its guests?"
However, the two bodyguards just sneered coldly, not giving Ning Fan a chance, with one of them launching a fierce punch aimed at Ning Fan's head, swift and sharp!
They were trying to deliver a fatal blow to Ning Fan!
But they had still underestimated Ning Fan's strength. With a shifting step, he easily dodged the sharp punch from the bodyguard.
Hmm!
The bodyguard was taken aback, clearly having underestimated his opponent's strength.
"So he's also a practitioner!"
The other bodyguard grinned, let out a loud shout, and with a whistling boxing wind, his military boxing technique aimed straight for Ning Fan's chest.
Second Master Xu was very satisfied seeing Ning Fan being attacked.
These two bodyguards were ex-military men he had hired for a high price!
Former ace special forces soldiers— even if this country bumpkin was amazing, could he fight against special forces soldiers?
And everyone present watched silently, waiting to see what would happen next.
They knew the consequences of offending Second Master Xu and all silently mourned for Ning Fan in their hearts.
And Ning Fan, who kept dodging, was also becoming angry.
He hadn't taken action just to show them some face, not expecting the two to attack so viciously!
"Kid, if you have the guts, stop dodging around like a coward!"
The two men were somewhat annoyed. After several coordinated attacks, they still couldn't take down Ning Fan.
The guy was slippery like an eel; they simply couldn't lay a hand on him.
"You asked for it!"
However, Ning Fan no longer dodged. He suddenly looked up, his sharp eyes now filled with a chilling coldness.
As one of the bodyguards swung a punch that seemed destined for his chest, suddenly, a large hand, fast as lightning, grabbed the fist. In the bodyguard's surprise, he saw a glint of cold light flash across Ning Fan's icy eyes.
Instantly, his fist along with the entire sleeve of his arm began to rupture into pieces, and then his whole arm was twisted by an immense force, with the sound of bones snapping crisply!
Whish!
A shadow flitted past!
With a thud, Ning Fan, using a body check, directly charged the bodyguard several meters away, causing him to crash into a table and spurt blood on the spot!
Similarly, the other bodyguard, seizing the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, found himself spinning mid-air as Ning Fan turned and delivered a kick, sending the bodyguard flying!
His speed was as fast as lightning that even others present couldn't see when he kicked, yet the bodyguard was already lying on the ground, spewing blood.
Surprise!
Shock!
All was silent!
A silence as of death!
"Nothing much."
Ning Fan dusted off his hands, his gaze dismissive.
"Damn it, you actually dared to strike!"
Second Master Xu's eyes were split with fury, wishing he could devour Ning Fan alive.
"Someone, take this presumptuous kid down, I want to see how good he really is!"
Second Master Xu was completely enraged.
Whoosh...
Seven or eight more bodyguards sprang into action.
Maybe one or two bodyguards were no match for Ning Fan, but a group of them?
Could he beat a whole group?
"Ruolan! How is Ruolan now!"
Just as Ning Fan was about to teach these bodyguards a lesson, he suddenly saw a middle-aged man in a suit striding through the doorway. The man's face was filled with worry as he looked around at everyone present.
Everyone was slightly startled, but it was Second Master Xu who reacted first.
Tears suddenly fell from Second Master Xu's cheeks.
A twitch passed through Ning Fan's brows; this acting was truly something else!
"Big brother, you have finally come back. I can't stand these days anymore!" Bending forward to grab the newcomer's sleeve, Second Master Xu wailed loudly.
The man who strode into the villa was none other than the current head of the Xu Family, father to Xu Ruolan and Xu Xiaoqing — Xu Chengyuan!
"What has happened?"
Seeing Second Master Xu looking so grief-stricken, Xu Chengyuan was slightly shocked and asked quickly.
"Xiaoqing brought some Jianghu charlatan from god knows where, insisting he treat Ruolan. I was afraid of problems arising, and while I tried to persuade her with good words, I never expected to be slapped!" As he spoke, Second Master Xu covered his slightly swollen left cheek.
Xu Chengyuan was taken aback, but before he could speak, an elderly voice sounded from behind.
"Family Head Xu, where exactly is the young Miss Xu?"
At the villa's entrance, a straight-backed elder was stroking his goatee, asking anxiously.
The person was not just anyone, but the renowned Medical Saint from Zhonghai, Liu Chongyang!
"Medical Saint Liu, you have really troubled yourself. My daughter is in her chamber..."
Xu Chengyuan dared not be negligent, addressing the goateed elder in front of him with a tone full of respect.
The elder nodded slightly and was about to head towards Xu Ruolan's boudoir when a portly figure rushed in front of him.
"Master, you've finally arrived! There's a charlatan here who knows nothing about medicine yet insists on treating Miss Ruolan, and I just can't stop him! Please step in and save Miss Xu's life!"
The elder was taken aback, and his gaze carried a hint of confusion as he looked forward.
Ning Fan's face was adorned with a cold smirk as he looked at the people before him, seemingly unmoved by their accusations against him.
The elder was somewhat stunned, but after a moment, he helplessly shook his head.
"Let's not worry about that now; let's first check on the patient's condition!"
The elder waved his hand dismissively, ignoring the accusing Hong Yuanqiao as he went straight to Xu Ruolan's bedroom. Afraid that even a second's delay might cause serious problems.
"You country bumpkin, if anything happens to Miss Xu, just wait and see!"
Hong Yuanqiao glared at Ning Fan from a distance.
Ning Fan was unmoved, his eyes brimming with scorn!
These city folks are really something, not only are they blind but they are also brainless?
Medical Saint Liu had just arrived at the bedside when he saw the Acupuncture Technique used on Xu Ruolan, and he stood there wide-eyed and frozen.
"Resurrection Needle! That's the Resurrection Needle! The peerless technique of Guiguzi!"
A loud shout came from Medical Saint Liu's mouth, startling everyone; they all looked at Liu Chongyang with puzzled gazes.
The others might not recognize the Acupuncture Technique they saw, but Liu Chongyang was very clear about it. Several years ago, he found his medical skills had reached a bottleneck and he couldn't advance any further.
After much research, he finally found in a remote village the disciple of Guiguzi.
What Medical Saint Liu had learned back then was precisely this Resurrection Technique!
However, Medical Saint Liu thought himself dull-witted and only learned the initial few needles, but the technique being used was exactly the same as what he had learned!
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
Hong Yuanqiao, seeing his master's expression, was also startled. Could it be that his master couldn't cure the illness?
He had previously boasted that there wasn't an ailment his master couldn't cure; could it be that he was about to be proven wrong?
Though he had modestly claimed that his master only had a forty to fifty percent chance of success, that was just superficial humility. Could it really be incurable?
Little did he know, Liu Chongyang ignored him completely and staggered toward Ning Fan.
Looking Ning Fan up and down again, tears slowly began to flow down his wrinkled face.
"Did the Resurrection Needle come from you?"
Medical Saint Liu looked at Ning Fan with excited eyes.
And Ning Fan nodded slightly.
Boom!
In an instant, a mist covered Liu Chongyang's eyes, and his aged body trembled slightly.
Suddenly, in front of everyone, he knelt down before Ning Fan!
"Master...is it really you?"
Medical Saint Liu, very emotional, took hold of Ning Fan's hands.
Master...master?
In a moment, everyone's mouths hung open in disbelief at the scene before them.
What the hell is going on?
Nani?
WTF!
"..."
"Chongyang really is blind, I should have recognized you, master... I bow to you..."
After speaking, Liu Chongyang bowed his head repeatedly, knocking it towards Ning Fan.
Liu Chongyang's kowtowing felt like daggers stabbing into the hearts of everyone present.
Medical Saint Liu Chongyang from Zhonghai, kneeling to a young lad and calling him master?
Not just the people around, but even Ning Fan found it hard to accept.
"Master, forgive my blurry eyes, I failed to recognize you at first!"
Yet, Liu Chongyang did not stop bowing his head...
The sudden change of events left everyone there feeling quite astonished.
Particularly Hong Yuanqiao, who had just been blustering. Now faced with puzzled looks from the crowd, he felt utterly humiliated.
If his own master had knelt down, did that mean he, too, should kneel according to their hierarchy?
The charlatan from the Jianghu is truly loathsome!
Hong Yuanqiao cursed inwardly with bitter resentment, enduring the strange gazes of the people as he quickly approached Liu Chongyang's side.
"Master, what has happened to you?"
Without waiting for Ning Fan's response, Hong Yuanqiao rolled up his sleeves and began scolding loudly while pointing at Ning Fan's nose.
"You scammer, what kind of drug did you give to my master to make him like this..."
Ning Fan let out a cold laugh, his eyes growing colder. He hated it when people pointed at him.
"You should better mind your own business first! Idiot!"
"Who are you calling an idiot, I'll..."
Hong Yuanqiao couldn't contain himself any longer. He was an attending physician after all; how could he let a country youth scold him like this?
Thinking this, Hong Yuanqiao was about to step forward to teach Ning Fan a lesson.
Smack!
He had taken only one step when he nearly fell flat on his face.
A powerful slap had landed heavily on the back of his head.
Hong Yuanqiao felt dizzy and immediately shook his head to steady himself.
Before he could figure out what had happened, Liu Chongyang's voice rang out.
"You damn fool! You can't even recognize your own ancestor? Talking about drugging, you have quite the imagination!"
"Master... I..."
Hong Yuanqiao tried to defend himself, but Liu Chongyang cut him off.
